Tacking up Tricorns:

Tack up 3 ends of the hat. Tack 4 stitches first just before the Contrast Color Change(Row 33) with black yarn, secure 5 stitches through the crown of the cap and the brim. Istart on the last stitch worked on row 33 and go over 2 stitches to the left, then back to thecenter and two stitches on the right. You should now have the first side tacked up. Now,eye the next two, With a sewing pin, tack up the other two sides the way you wouldlike them, then tack down 5 stitches on each side as you did with the first flap. Normallythe back flap is slightly wider than the front two. You can tack in several spots if youwould like.

Final tacking is done with Fun Fur: cut a 6 inch strand of fun fur and tie with a squareknot 5 stitches back (going through both sides that meet to form the point) on each point(to create a sharper point), tuck in ends. Do this on every point of the hat.

st

ch in this row and finish off. Make leaves asabove and sew onto back of rose(s).

**I usually put my flowers on French Barrettes or Pinch Clips so you can change out theflowers, but you can also securely sew them to the hat (recommended for infants).

***Please watch young toddlers around the Fun Fur yarn, be sure they do not put itin their mouth, sometimes the fur fluff will come off and can get into theirrespiratory tract. That is why I did not size the pattern smaller than 12 mos***
